What is up with the Brandon Sun cutting it's TV Guide from the Saturday paper. Are they unaware that those who purchase the paper primarily do so on that day for the guide? In a town the size of Brandon, with the demographics being as they are, the Sun made a very poor choice.  
 
Now, it would have made sense to get some feedback from the community, perhaps offer a poll of some sort, to see what viable options are available given their apparent limited means at the Sun. I'm sure no would have minded paying a little extra for the Saturday paper for the guide alone, especially since it is the only day's offering of the week worth reading. Maybe they could have offered it as a separate purchase even. It is a sad day when senior citizens and the new arrivals here, as well as everyone else, are 'forced' to either get a computer or else subscribe  
 
Since when is it alright to require buyers into purchasing a service they don't want or need in order to see what is on Tuesday night on NBC? Good grief! Terrible marketing decision
